SXp precompiler:

structured assembly-code programming for Scenix™ SX microcontrollers

Higher programming language or assembly code? Because of market
developments and ever-shortening design cycles, today’s software
developers tend to employ higher programming languages like C or C+
for microcontroller applications. In many cases, this choice is more or
less forced by requirements like program documentation, product support
and deadlines. However, higher-level programming may not be
possible when memory resources are limited, or when the application is
time-critical. In such cases, an assembler supporting structured programming
offers the best of both worlds, with high program speeds and
clever memory usage thrown in as useful extras.
